About this study

Official title: Priming of Cardiopulmonary Bypass With Hydroxyethyl Starch 130/0.4 or Sodium Chloride 0.9% : a Double Blind Randomized Pilot Study in Adult Elective Conventional Cardiac Surgery

Best priming for cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac surgery is unknown. Efficacy and toxicity of Hydroxyethyl Starch 130/0.4 used in this context are uncertain.

The aim of this pilot study is to determine if Hydroxyethyl Starch 130/0.4 is more effective than Sodium Chloride 0.9% in short term hemodynamic purpose without side renal or hemostatic effect.

Being tested
Non balanced Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 (Voluven®, Fresenius), Sodium Chloride 0.9% (Fresenius)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Non balanced Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 (Voluven®, Fresenius) and Sodium Chloride 0.9% (Fresenius) in people with Extracorporeal Circulation and Cardiac Surgery, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Supplementary volume of fluid administered during cardiopulmonary bypass (ml) (time frame: Day 1 (From initiation to separation of cardiopulmonary bypass)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02906514, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Aug 2025.
